EVENING

I loved spending My early evening times with friends who hosted Me.  I attended all the feasts in Jerusalem, and My Jerusalem friends usually invited Me to share evening meals with them near the Feast of Tabernacles. 

I also loved spending time with My family as we broke bread together in the evenings during the Feast of Tabernacles.  The last time I went to the Feast in Jerusalem, I was led by the Holy Spirit to wait until close to the end of the Feast to make My journey to Jerusalem.  My brothers wanted Me to go up to Jerusalem for all of the Feast, but I knew I had to wait.

It was difficult for Me to see My family enjoying their meals in their succah during the feast.  I was on the outside looking in as they had their meals together.  This was one of the occasions when I identified with those who are lonely.  Family is so important, and that is why My Father always wants to set the lonely in families.  Pray for  those who are lonely during these High Holy Days and later during the Feast of Tabernacles.
